"Free Opinions, Freely Expressed on Certain Phases of Modern Social Life and Conduct" by Marie Corelli is an essay collection that highlights early 20th century societal concerns. Corelli fearlessly tackles topics like education, morality, and the role of faith in a world that is continuously advancing. She critically examines the clergy of her time and a decline of morals in society, claiming that many educated people are really unaware of current events because they read without thinking. She mainly accuses society of skimming at the surface rather than truly thinking about what they read. She makes it clear that society has moral and spiritual deficiencies.
